ITEM NUMBER ONE:\u00c2\u00a0 Richard Black talks to Mike Billington about the drug war in the Philippines, in support of Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte<\/a>.\u00c2\u00a0 It takes “Right Wing Watch” over a month to notice.\u00c2\u00a0 (To be sure, it trickles through the media slowly —<\/a> and the international media sometimes can’t quite spell out the difference between US Senator and State Senator.)<\/p>\n

(Here he is on the “Ron Paul Liberty Report<\/a>” regarding other anti-interventionist isolationist views.)<\/p>\n

ITEM NUMBER TWO:\u00c2\u00a0 Well.\u00c2\u00a0 Here’s the wikipedia’s new subcategory regarding the 2016 election campaign of Lyndon Larouche.<\/p>\n

On October 17, 2016, LaRouchePAC advised readers to write in Lyndon LaRouche and Alexander Hamilton in the 2016 Presidential elections. In the article “What We Need in 2016: \u00e2\u20ac\u201d Alexander Hamilton’s Principles, LaRouche’s Four Laws”, the PAC wrote “American citizens should write in LaRouche’s name at the presidential ballot box to stand for the re-adoption of Alexander Hamilton’s economic principles, as LaRouche has reclarified them. “I’m writing in LaRouche and Alexander Hamilton, let’s get the nation to elect the right principles” will cut through the dread with which Americans are questioning each other about the approach of Election Day.” [18]<\/sup><\/em><\/p>\n

This exhortation was disseminated by PAC members through social media. No verifiable statistics have been assembled concerning vote totals.<\/em><\/p>\n

The question is… does this presidential run qualify as a presidential run, thus making it nine, thus breaking the “eight time presidential candidate tie” with Harold Stassen that is so much a part of the Larouche legacy?<\/p>\n

ITEM NUMBER THREE:\u00c2\u00a0 Helga:\u00c2\u00a0 But I have the most severe doubts that this question of a Classical education and the aesthetical improvement of man can be expected from this Trump administration<\/em>.
\nWow.\u00c2\u00a0 You don’t say.
\nI think you need a kind of spirit of ennoblement, of the sublime; and that level you do not find in any of the utterances from the Trump side. At least, I haven\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t heard anything even close to that.
\n<\/em>Read his twitter account more carefully.\u00c2\u00a0 It’s there.
\nBut you have heard it from such people as Benjamin Franklin, as George Washington, as Alexander Hamilton, John Quincy Adams, and especially Lincoln<\/em>.
\nI hear the first draft of the Gettysburg Address… famous for being rather short oratory… was even shorter, and (as Lincoln was renown for being crude in some private occasions) might just have read a lot like one of Trump’s tweet.\u00c2\u00a0 But that’s up for the archivists to uncover.<\/p>\n

ITEM NUMBER FOUR:\u00c2\u00a0 So.\u00c2\u00a0 Where are we with Russia, as Obama offers his out the door retaliation and Putin waits it all out for the start of the Trump Administration<\/a>?<\/p>\n

They have Mike Gravel talking down the accusations of Russian involvement in hacking<\/a>.\u00c2\u00a0 Because if anyone should know these things, it’s Mike Gravel, “Veteran Intelligence Dissident<\/a>“!\u00c2\u00a0 (Hm<\/a>.)<\/p>\n

Of course, none of this stops the Larouche org from crowing over the increase in Russian might and power.<\/p>\n

In an editorial in H\u00c3\u00bcrriyet in Turkey, chief editor Murat Yetkin writes that Russian President Vladimir Putin has the most influence in the Middle East and the new U.S. Administration should work with him. […]
\n<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

When briefed on this assessment, Lyndon LaRouche said it was on the mark and if we can get rid of Obama, a combination can be pulled together along these lines.<\/em> <\/span><\/p>\n

Though, sooner or later, in positioning toward here and there for increased “exposure” … we’re going to have to figure out what to do with Trump on China<\/a>.<\/p>\n

And then there’s the fight against the Real Killer.\u00c2\u00a0 In response to Obama\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s statements, Lyndon LaRouche said, \u00e2\u20ac\u0153These words are a threat to murder people of importance. This is what Obama\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s stepfather taught him.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d LaRouche called on citizens to \u00e2\u20ac\u0153watch this guy, so that he doesn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t kill. He is publicly threatening the world. The nations of the planet are now threatened by Obama\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s plan for mass killing of people.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d Obama \u00e2\u20ac\u0153is intrinsically a killer,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d as LaRouche put it. […]
\n<\/em><\/p>\n

LaRouche emphasized that, \u00e2\u20ac\u0153The signals are all there. Obama has made it clear. . . Obama has made repeated efforts to show his readiness for large-scale killing in the United States and other nations.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d What needs to be done, is \u00e2\u20ac\u0153to shut down Obama,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d to prevent what he intends to do.<\/em><\/p>\n

What the hell is it to “shut down Obama”?\u00c2\u00a0 And born of this is your conspiracy theories that surround any number of tragedies (tends to go toward “Gummint orchestrated it to take your guns away).<\/p>\n

ITEM NUMBER FIVE:\u00c2\u00a0 Looks like the “lamestream media<\/a>” is siding with “Obscure blogger” Webster Tarpley as against Melania Trump.\u00c2\u00a0 You can read the sarcasm pouring out here.<\/p>\n

So what did Mr. Webster Tarpley from Maryland do to get the\u00c2\u00a0First Lady-elect so mad? He said mean things apparently, and spewed \u00e2\u20ac\u0153false rumors.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/em><\/p>\n

Sure.\u00c2\u00a0 So recap: 1) 70-year-old man, who up until this lawsuit has no measurable national or local influence, writes\u00c2\u00a0about rumors he read on the internet\u00c2\u00a0on his own personal blog. 2) Gets threatening letter from Charles Harder, Melania Trump\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s attorney, to take down said articles. 3) Immediately complies with the request. Takes the articles down, and apologizes. 4) Then a few weeks later, gets sued by Melania Trump for $150 million for defamation. What the heck? How exactly did his\u00c2\u00a0barely trafficked website damage\u00c2\u00a0Melania\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s\u00c2\u00a0reputation?<\/em><\/p>\n

Things get interesting.\u00c2\u00a0 Sure.\u00c2\u00a0 They he no longer has Alex Jones as a megaphone for these things — Jones would be spreading false rumors about Clinton these days and charging for Trump — and it’s noteworthy Jones associates are hurraying the lawsuit<\/a> — but he does have, oh, actual megaphones and signs he and his group waves around.<\/p>\n

\u00c2\u00a0Her attention to the website\u00c2\u00a0unquestionably brought him more notoriety and web traffic then the actual story itself!<\/em><\/p>\n

Or, to put it another way<\/a>…<\/p>\n

Whether a lawsuit by a future first lady against an unknown blogger is the optimal way to combat fake news is another question.<\/em><\/p>\n

And to Rachel Maddow<\/a>.<\/p>\n

At that point, Maddow looped back to the retraction issue, eliciting a comment from\u00c2\u00a0Conway about how that doesn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t undo the damage. Maddow proceeded to cover her face and exclaim \u00e2\u20ac\u0153My God, you guys are endorsing this strategy!\u00e2\u20ac\u009d in the moment immortalized by this article\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s\u00c2\u00a0featured image.<\/em><\/p>\n

… You want to play “6 (or, I guess 2) degrees of separation”?\u00c2\u00a0 Rachel Maddow was a host on Air America Radio, alongside Mike Malloy, who once (to the howls of right wing bloggers) had Webster Tarpley on his show.\u00c2\u00a0 No evidence they met, though.<\/p>\n

ITEM NUMBER SIX:\u00c2\u00a0 Town Hall goes back to this<\/a>:\u00c2\u00a0 They knew the Obama\/Hitler pictures actually were the work of progressive Lyndon LaRouche lunatics who show up at every political gathering<\/em>…<\/p>\n

And, your EIR<\/a> correspondent<\/a> overseas<\/a> press<\/a> round-up.\u00c2\u00a0 (Note, it’s who cites Cheminade of Germany<\/a>.)<\/p>\n

ITEM NUMBER SEVEN:\u00c2\u00a0 Apparently Bill Roberts is the man to watch, if you’re watching the Larouche org’s apparatus.\u00c2\u00a0 We have a floundering Manhattan Project, and in light of the election cycles’ focus on the Rust Belt — all eyes are on Bill Roberts.\u00c2\u00a0 Expect a swing of activity and card-tables getting popped up in Michigan.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
